For example, I want to change my site design from a Ludwig based one, to a Nix based one. But I have to create and set up all my menus and their corresponding pages all over again. The menus and their pages should be able to be saved or not altered when switching site designs.

The exif info displayed when you hit the Info button in the lightbox is extremely limited, considering how many fields EXIF supports. We frequently have professional clients that need specific info in the EXIF - even having a "Comments" field available would be most useful! Plus there are many other fields easily accessable in Lightroom for instance, that might be useful for other photographers.

However, there are times when I need to display content in something other than a block of text. A table for price lists is one such example.

It would be nice to have shortcodes available to be able to format text within a text widget. Kind of what Wordpress uses for formating content on a page. Do you want a table? Add the appropriate shortcodes and your content and the back end formats the appropriate HTML code. Need collapsible sections? Add a shortcode and content. Need an inline graphic? (something not doable now) add a shortcode.

By making shortcodes available you can still control the HTML parsing while giving your customers additional customizations.

1. As an artist we all are smart people and understand,file size, MB ,GB
etc etc but not all clients are same, hence if we have a info on folder
whcih shows folder size/no of files so when a clients dowloads files they
know that they have downloaded full set.

Please add a feature to add Customer Testimonials to my site. It should be a page you can add, add a menu link to it from your homepage, ask the client for their name, rating (1 to 5 or stars or something like that), have them write up to maybe 200-300 characters and then have a submit button. The owner can then review the testimonial and choose to publish or not.

Currently RSS Feed link is in the footer. This doesn't work so well for very large galleries, because the infinite scroll means you have to do a lot of work to get to the link.

I'd like to propose that the link be positionable (or at least provide a few choices), so that (for instance), I could position the link in the lower right-hand corner of the gallery hero image (near the download/slideshow buttons)

Not saying the footer shouldn't be an option, but I don't think it should be the only choice!

I have two major accounts I regularly upload photos for, one is an amusement business and they need media to be able to access a gallery of mine for publications. The other is my own photo business. I would like to have my photo business have a subdomain and their business to have a separate subdomain. That way when they send the press to my site to gather photos I've uploaded for them, they don't use my name, but theirs. But I can continue using my name for my other clients.

I know I am able to wrap text around an image by writing/editing HTML. This assumes the user has HTML knowledge.

Would it be possible to create a feature, enabling the wrapping of a block of text around an image? As opposed to only being able to place the text above, below, to the left or to the right of the image?

The email your system sends when inviting a contact to access a gallery (e.g. as used in the Client Area functionality) is pretty awesome. It would be nice to be able to brand the email and change it's message content. However, at the absolute bear minimum, can we at least have the ability to change how it refers to US? The email reads "Great news! dtrimble has invited you...". It looks amateurish and a bit silly to say "dtrimble", which is also what shows in the from header. It would be super useful to be able to say my full name, or something more specific than a username.

Allow back/forward arrows for slideshow (and lightbox) to fit not just at the sides of the slideshow but also right under the slideshow and not intrude on the image area. (Or maybe other locations too?)

And to be able to group the back/forward, thumbnails link, full screen button, and play button all neatly together under the slideshow.

And for these not to disappear/reappear or fade/unfade with mouse hoverings .

(She does have mouse hover animation; but we can imagine that there's an option to allow the page designer to not have that.)

Meanwhile, with SmugMug, the back/forward arrows are on opposite sides of the content block and pushed to the every edge, which makes them harder to spot and requires more mousing by the user if the user wants to go back and forth sometimes.

Also, SmugMug forces a very slight animation (fading and unfading) on the arrows. And in the lightbox, the arrows appear/disappear depending on clicking on/off inside the image area. All that should be allowed to be turned off.

This is such a simple, basic thing.

Currently, the sidebars on pages pin only if they are an entire site sidebar or homepage sidebar.

That disallows having different pinned sidebars on different pages.

Moreover, entire site sidebars display on the 'Unlock Page' page, which would not be wanted if you want all of the content of your pages (including the sidebar) to be private.

It seems pretty basic to allow having different content on sidebars on different pages, and to choose to pin all of them or some of them individually, and for the sidebar not to be visible to people without a visitor password.

I can't think of any reason this is not already enabled.

I would like to have pages that have on them a slideshow but also other content blocks with other text, such as a paragraph about the subject of the slideshow or navigation on a sidebar, etc.

Then also a button to the thumbnails. And on the thumbnails page, also content blocks along with the thumbnails. Then to be able to click on a thumbnail to bring you back to the slideshow page at that image in the slideshow.

You see that she has her sidebar navigation on both the slideshow page and thumbnails page. (And also probably she could add text above/under/around her slideshow and her thumbnails, if she wanted to do that.)

But this is not possible now in SmugMug.

It's such an elegant, simple, and basic approach to presenting photographs, and you see it on the web very often.

I can't imagine why this isn't already enabled in SmugMug.

I have a question and a suggestion. The suggestion is to change the customization of galleries to make "Make This Gallery Custom" the default position rather that "All Galleries." I propose that most text usage will be intended for one gallery, not all, and that, as happened to me twice, I changed the lead-in text on all of my galleries accidentally when I had intended it for the new gallery I was working on. My question is related: Is there a way for me to change that default on my account even though, because I was burned twice before, I am very attentive to making that alteration each time I create a gallery?

Firstly, make the default settings to provide the most protection. Don't make a user have to search for all the boxes to uncheck to make sure their photos are protected. Second, allow the user to make a default setting of their own that will be applied to all new galleries so they don't have to go through all the settings everytime and hope they don't forget to uncheck one of these sharing settings. Thirdly, allow setting changes to be applied to multiple galleries at once. Fourthly, allow the mobile site to actually change gallery settings!!!

I chose a package that doesn't allow selling so when I had a friend say she bought my photos from my website I was in shock. The buy button was actually visible to her and let her buy my photos with no notification to me that she was doing this or could do this. I had to completely block everyone from my website to ensure no one else printed my images without my knowledge.

why is it that we can not get even a basic html editor built (to do basic text editing and to control the page content) in to our dashboard and from the html editor there would be way to upload a image directly from the html editor and then publish - i have requested this several times with no results yet - I think I will just go with wordpress and save $20.00 a month - this is ridicules and really getting on my nerves...

Formatting text content of a gallery is extremely cumbersome right now (e.g., no bullets). Cutting and pasting of already formatted content is not possible. When one attempts to do so, there is not back; an "Undo" does not exist. Please provide it.
